Yesterday, NLIHC released the Spring 2025 issue of Tenant Talk, our semiannual newsletter designed to engage residents in housing advocacy. The new issue features articles linking the work of affordable housing to the ongoing current climate crisis.
In this edition of Tenant Talk, readers will explore the intersection of climate change, disaster recovery, and housing justice. This issue features articles that examine the disproportionate impacts of climate disasters on marginalized communities, highlight tenant-led climate advocacy efforts, and spotlight ongoing recovery struggles in places such as Hawaii and Puerto Rico. From in-depth interviews with policy experts and tenant leaders to a look into the documentary, "Razing Liberty Square," the publication dives into the human side of climate displacement and resilience. Readers will also find updates on federal housing policy – including recent HUD staff and funding cuts – and the latest research on climate-related housing challenges. The edition centers tenant voices and underscores the urgent need for equitable, affordable, and climate-resilient housing and recovery efforts.
A digital version of Tenant Talk is now available to all NLIHC members and partners—and the general public—for reading or downloading. Digital copies will soon be available in Spanish.
